Electric power can be generated by using an existing bicycle without impairing the durability of the tire of the bicycle. The bicycle generator device (50) comprises a housing (52) configured to be attached to a frame (18) of a bicycle (10), a generator (54) attached to the housing (52), an annular rotational input member (81) for rotationally driving the generator (54), the rotational input member being rotatably mounted on the housing and positioned around a crank axis line which is a rotational center line of a crankshaft (24) and a crank arm (26) for a pedal of the bicycle, and a connecting member (90, 130) connecting the rotational input member (81) to the crankshaft (24) or the crank arm (26) in a torque transmitting relationship.
